Yttria-stabilized zirconia (3Y-TZP) containing 0.25% Al2O3, which is resistant to low temperature degradation (LTD), was aged for 10 h at 130–220 °C in air. The aged specimens were subsequently indented at loads ranging from 9.8 to 490 N using a Vickers indenter. The influence of preaging temperature on the biaxial strength of the specimens was investigated to elucidate the relationship between the extent of LTD and the strength of zirconia restorations that underwent LTD. The indented strength of the specimens increased as the preaging temperature was increased higher than 160 °C, which was accompanied by extensive t-ZrO2 (t) to m-ZrO2 (m) and c-ZrO2 (c) to r-ZrO2 (r) phase transformations. The influence of preaging temperature on the indented strength was rationalized by the residual stresses raised by the t→m transformation and the reversal of tensile residual stress on the aged specimen surface due to the indentation. The results suggested that the longevity of restorations would not be deteriorated if the aged restorations retain compressive residual stress on the surface, which corresponds to the extent of t→m phase transformation less than 52% in ambient environment.

A mixed potential-type NO2 sensor was fabricated using yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) as the electrolyte and mesoporous WO3 as the sensing electrode for the detection of NO2 in vehicle exhausts. The mesoporous WO3 with a diameter of 7 nm was synthesized using the hard template method. The sensor showed excellent performance in the detection of 30–500[Formula: see text]ppm of NO2 at 300∘C and 500∘C. However, commercial WO3 only operate well at 500∘C. The response of the mesoporous WO3 was higher and the test temperature was lower compared to that of commercial WO3. XPS combined with NO2-TPD was used to explain the high activity of mesoporous WO3 at medium-low temperature, and the mechanism of mixed electromotive force was verified by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Furthermore, the sensor exhibited high NO2 selectivity in the presence of interfering gases, such as NO, CO, CO2 and NH3. Most importantly, the sensor had excellent repeatability and stability.

Control of the in-plane epitaxial alignment of c-axis YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) films on yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) substrates is necessary for achieving optimal transport properties. We have used pulsed laser deposition to grow homoepitaxial YSZ and heteroepitaxial CeO2 on YSZ single crystal substrates. This procedure dramatically improves the epitaxy of YBCO and reduces the number of low and high angle grain boundaries. We have also studied the effects of preparing the YSZ growth surface with approximately monolayer amounts of CuO, Y2O3, BaO, and BaZrO3 to determine the effects these compositional variations have on the subsequent YBCO epitaxy. CuO, Y2O3, and BaZrO3 induce an in-plane crystallography of YBCO distinct from that initiated with BaO. Both homoepitaxy and monolayer depositions may be carried out in situ and are simple and effective for controlling the epitaxy and electrical properties of YBCO on YSZ. The effects of substrate temperature, oxygen pressure, and yttria content have also been studied.
